Getting my dad off the Comcast rentals in c/[email protected]

This. They’ve made it a wash with Xfinity with the Xfi Complete package - you pay for the modem but you get unlimited data. 1.2TB is nothing with a family of five, all gamers, streaming TV, etc.

Comcast still allows you to put the modem in bridge mode, at least for now. I run everything else on my own gear.

Best mesh WiFi systems with direct uplink in router? in c/[email protected]

It’s not the speed but the caps. Xfinity caps at 1TB per month. Streaming with multiple people - breaking that easily.

Same with simultaneous downloads. I can easily saturate 2.5gbe with five people.

Battery life. That’s it.
